The BEST salted caramel mocha fudge with dulce de leche swirls and sprinkled the sea salt! 7 ingredients and ready to eat in 3 hours!
I have a theory about why fudge is so dangerous.
First, it’s small.. meaning it disappears quickly. And because it’s small you rationalize in your head that you want need another piece.
Second, a little square of fudge packs a lot of flavor. It’s like concentrated goodness and who wouldn’t want another piece of something they love?
Third, it’s creamy. I think that’s a big selling point for me.
Fourth, it’s versatile and comes in many flavors. I’m not sure I’ve met someone who didn’t at least like one flavor of fudge.
Fifth, it’s fast! You could make it in the morning or early afternoon and it will be set for after dinner dessert.
Now if your fudge hangs around long enough (not in my house!) can you freeze it. Or if you want to get a head start on holiday baking, fudge is a great thing to freeze and pull out when needed.
To freeze fudge, you can wrap it tightly in plastic wrap in smaller bundles (like 4 squares of fudge) or you could freeze a whole bunch and separate the layers with wax paper and then place inside an airtight container or ziploc bag.
It’s best to thaw the fudge slowly in the fridge. This will prevent condensation from forming.
This fudge requires 7 ingredients – and you probably already have sugar, butter, salt and maybe even mini marshmallows so you’re really only a few ingredients away from the best fudge.
We’re partnering with International Delight to bring you this recipe and I gotta tell you that I think their new salted mocha caramel creamer is by far my favorite!! I’m a chocolate girl through and through.
I was concerned that you wouldn’t be able to taste the creamer in the fudge because it’s up against chocolate and dulce de leche, but the salted caramel mocha creamer holds its own. Like a lot.
It’s chocolately, caramely and perfectly salted. I added dulce de leche swirls and extra sea salt to the top of the fudge and not only does it look great (I adore perfectly imperfect swirls!!) it adds nice flavor!
We shared this fudge with friends and it was DEVOURED!
